AGS Security

AGS Security, private security guarding based in Wolverhampton

AGS Security is the trading name of Albrighton Group Services Ltd, a security company based in Wolverhampton that provides guarding and protection services across the West Midlands and throughout the UK. Its activity is aimed at businesses, property owners, developers and organisations that need to protect people, property, assets and operations.

The company works with SIA-licensed personnel for activities requiring a licence, and combines on-site guarding, patrols, monitoring and response according to the risk and characteristics of each site. Its staff undergo vetting processes in accordance with the BS7858 standard and, when the assignment requires it, additional DBS checks.

Security services

The service catalogue covers different forms of protection, from the permanent presence of security officers to one-off or response solutions:

• Manned guarding with security officers.
• Protection of vacant or unoccupied properties.
• Security dog handlers.
• Retail security.
• Reception security.
• Mobile patrols.
• Key holding.
• Gatehouse security.
• Fire marshal and fire watch services.
• Construction site security.
• CCTV monitoring.
• Alarm response.

Operational approach

The company approaches each service based on the client's operational requirement rather than as a standard package. To do this, it analyses the site risk, access, operating hours and specific needs, and then determines the appropriate combination of personnel, patrols, monitoring and response.

The delivery model includes site-specific planning, structured operational reporting, incident communication and escalation, and the ability to mobilise both on a planned and urgent basis. The company states it has 24/7 operational support and coverage that allows it to serve individual locations, regional requirements and multi-site portfolios.

Its regional coverage includes West Midlands, East Midlands, South Midlands, London, East of England, North West, North East, Yorkshire & Humber, South East, South West and Wales.

Personnel are deployed locally and supported by central operational supervision, which allows it to maintain consistent service standards for local, regional and multi-site requirements.
